Your point is irrational and mute.

ROTFLMAO! That's "moot", o widely-read one.

I meant your point is dumb (mute)

Don't embarrass yourself any further. Or do - your call.

MY WHOLE life was affected because of “just laws’ which reinforced a virtuous mindset. You need culture to reinforce wisdom, a virtue, in people.

But just a few posts ago you said, "People of virtue don’t need laws at all." So which is it?

LOLOL. You know what I meant so what is your problem? Are you a typo police man now????? LOL-—I have better things to do than take precious minutes proof-reading everything I rapidly type and lots of times I type their for there but on “posts”, it really shouldn’t matter if the meaning is clear which it obviously was to you. BTW—for you I really was thinking “mute” (dumb) since I am never a perfect Christian.

You are totally ignorant of the concept of human nature (from Natural Law Theory). As Christians rightly put it we are born with original sin-—and so we are fallen and it is NOT possible to be “perfect” as Marxists think we can. Since we are fallen and can’t be perfect, we NEED some government (laws) and a “Justice” system to settle disputes in a rational, just (virtuous) way.

Only Jesus was perfect-—with PERFECT VIRTUE. He needed NO LAWS!
Man needs laws-—and we have them—God’s Laws and if we obey ALL of them, we would be PERFECT and need NO human “laws”. Our Founders all knew we weren’t perfect—and that is why Just Laws can only promote “public virtue” because we tend to be lazy and vice is easier. It is easier to steal the food from a farm, than put in the effort and work of the virtuous farmer.
